Benefits: Laptop computers are frequently used in outdoor environments where sunlight and glare make screen viewing very difficult due to screen wash-out. The CompUshade® blocks most of these visual impediments and increases apparent screen contrast, thereby reducing eye-strain and helping to control Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). The CompUshade® also helps to provide viewing privacy which is especially needed for laptops used in public places.

This patented design can be folded closed while remaining attached to your laptop, so it is always with you when you need it.

How it works: A left hand and right hand hinged panel assembly, each consisting of an integral side panel plus top panel, are hinged to a mounting strip. The mounting strip becomes attached to the outside of your laptop’s lid using pressure-sensitive Velcro strips (see sketch below). The assemblies overlap near the top center to form a 3-sided tunnel around the screen, approximately 9 inches deep.

The resulting tunnel blocks most light infiltrating around the top and sides of your screen. The panel assemblies can remain affixed to the outside of the laptop’s lid and swing nearly flat for storage.
